122 bars at 174 BPM -- fast, and 2:47 of it without a break -- on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.
snare through bar 1, hi-hat through bars 2-21, ride through bars 22-29, hi-hat through bars 30-49, ride through bars 50-55 and hi-hat through bars 56-65, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 67-80, 83-88 and 91-92 -- 18% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

70 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 51 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
